Elaine's Famous Zucchini Bread

Submitted by jimjam63

"This recipe has been in my family since I can remember. Always a big hit no matter who makes it. The honey makes the crust a little chewy. I like the nuts finely crushed use different kinds. It's pretty sweet and great warmed up with some butter on it; hard to believe there's Zucchini in it!"
